11/ That wasn't an ad hominem attack, as I know nothing about you and said nothing about you. I criticized your argument that data must be peer reviewed to be valid or useful or trustworthy. https://twitter.com/InkstainsD/status/1301607555672793091 …

13/ is your stance that publishers ONLY discriminate against men in the YA field? that might be correct; perhaps I can step back from my earlier claims and we can agree on that ...https://twitter.com/elizabeth_case/status/1301613818414616583 …

14/ if "86.84% of YA SF that's published is written by women" is a TOE HOLD, then what does complete and fair representation of women in the field look like? 95% ? 99% ?https://twitter.com/elizabeth_case/status/1301621428589076483 …

Elizabeth @elizabeth_caseReplying to @MorlockP @InkstainsDwhere to start. over last 200 years, YA has been majority male authored. in the last 30 or so years, women have gained a toehold in the (male-dominated) publishing industry in YA, and regularly marketed or encouraged to publish as YA even when their books are not...2 replies 0 retweets 10 likesShow this thread -
15/ Also, how can you claim that publishing is "male dominated" when 78% of the staff at publishers are female? What I see is that there is a systemic problem where a female dominated industry seeks to exclude the Other (male) writers.https://www.theguardian.com/books/2016/jan/27/us-study-finds-publishing-is-overwhelmingly-white-and-female …

17/ Yes, I agree that women hold internalized biases, and this is why I'm saying that we maybe need to consider affirmative action and quotas, not just on the books that publishers buy, but also on the staff that they hire.https://twitter.com/elizabeth_case/status/1301623484754333696 …

18/ good question. Unclear, but maybe not! Men did pass the 19th amendment, giving women the vote, and men used to run the publishing industry, but invited women in. So we have evidence that men invite in outsiders, but women do not. Need to fix thathttps://twitter.com/elizabeth_case/status/1301624186809483264 …

19/ perhaps so! But back to the fact that women make up around 80% of the publishing staff and - surprise! - women make up about 80% of the YA SFF books that publishers choose to publish, even tho they only make up 50% of the population - how do we fix?https://twitter.com/elizabeth_case/status/1301625801666957312 …
